How's this:
Before the system will accept a post to the mailing list from an address
for the first time, it mails a confirmation request message to the would-be
poster. The confirmation includes the text from a Q from the FAQ, selected
at random. To enable posting, you have to reply to the list server with the
*section number* of the question.
That way, they are forced to find the FAQ, and read enough of it to at
least find which question was randomly selected.
And by using item 4.1 instead of a random question, we could cut list
traffic in half.
;-)
Happy Friday.
